Santa Ana, Calif. – May 20, 2026 – Veros Real Estate Solutions (Veros®), an industry leader in enterprise risk management and collateral valuation services, is proud to announce its role as a key collaborator in the development of the MISMO® Common Confidence Score (CCS). As one of the first companies to implement the score into its automated valuation model (AVM), VeroVALUE®, Veros is helping usher in a new era of transparency and standardization for the mortgage industry.
The MISMO CCS recently reached “Recommendation” status, the final step in the standards lifecycle. Developed through a partnership of industry leaders, the CCS establishes a single, standardized approach to communicating AVM accuracy, enabling clearer risk interpretation and better decision-making across the wider housing finance landscape.
Advancing Past Complex Metrics
The CCS represents a practical evolution in confidence scoring, designed to replace the Forecast Standard Deviation (FSD). While FSD has been a long-standing technical metric, its complexity often made it difficult for stakeholders to interpret. The CCS simplifies this by providing a score that correlates to P10, the percentage of valuations that fall within +/-10% of a property’s market value.
“For decades, the industry has sought a standardized AVM confidence score, and Veros is proud to have collaborated with industry leaders to bring the MISMO Common Confidence Score to life. By establishing a unified, easy-to-understand metric, we enable transparent, property-by-property comparisons across different AVMs.”
Eric Fox, Chief Economist & Senior Vice President of Analytics at Veros.
A Commitment to Accuracy and Validation
Veros leadership emphasizes that while the standardization of the score is a milestone, the reliability of the output remains paramount.
“The CCS is the latest and most practical effort to move the industry toward a standard that everyone can understand. Veros was among the first providers to push confidence scoring into measurable statistical meaning years ago, and today we are helping lead the push for easy-to-understand standardized performance measures. However, it is vital that stakeholders continue to test and validate that a vendor’s CCS output consistently meets the MISMO definition before it is relied upon in production.”
Darius Bozorgi, CEO and President of Veros
“The value of a common metric lies in its reliability. If an AVM’s CCS is intended to measure a specific P10, users must verify that the model performs to that standard. Our goal is to provide a tool that is not only easy to interpret but is also rigorously validated.”
David Rasmussen, COO of Veros
Dual Support for Industry and Proprietary Standards
The CCS is now available within the VeroVALUE AVM report in addition to the existing VeroVALUE Confidence Score (VCS). While the CCS provides a vendor-agnostic benchmark for the broader market, the VCS continues to offer deep, model-specific insights optimized for the VeroVALUE engine. This dual-score approach ensures that Veros clients have the flexibility to benchmark against the industry while maintaining their established internal risk cascades.
